Aleen was the best :) super funny and knowledgeable.
Great guide, great experienced, I learn a lot of ananas, presentation was fun, educational, very good.
Excelent. Short, sweet, enough information. I did not expect so impresive tour obout bananas.
It is an interesting activity to get to know the world of the banana in a beautiful place. Too bad it lasts so little.
15 euros per person to see a few banana plants and eat a banana is a bit expensive. Especially since we expected to taste special bananas given that there are all colors and flavors according to what was explained to us, but not at all, just a simple yellow banana and a few pieces of toast. Special mention to the sparkling banana wine, delicious. In this type of tour, generally, the entrance fee is deducted from purchases made afterwards in the shop; that was not the case here.
A very neatly maintained facility at the plantation, well-structured and somewhat commercial at the checkout due to various products for sale. Our guide (Ms. Alleen) offered a very charming and professional tour. She was always able to fully answer all additional questions asked about banana cultivation. I can highly recommend this tour. The tasting afterwards was also great. Many thanks to the entire team ♥️
A bit expensive for what it is, but definitely worth it, the tasting is very nice
Very pleasant and explained things very well, highly recommended
Steve is very nice, 10 out of 10, a great guy and everything was great
Nice to visit a plantation where you get good explanations about the production, and can taste. Very professional!
